Up to Me

©Lydia Lord

We’ve all been in trouble
And we’ve all made mistakes
Sometimes life has dumped on us
And sometimes gave us breaks
We’ve reached this point by different roads
But one thing still is clear
That doesn’t matter half as much
As where we go from here

Chorus:
I can choose to change
I can choose to stay the same
To be proud of my accomplishments
Or beaten by my shame
I can’t decide what happens
Or how my life will be
But how I choose to handle it
Is up to me
